Full technical details for Audi A1

Audi has just released technical details on its  new A1 e-tron concept that debuted at the Geneva Motor Show. A1 uses an extended range electric architecture like the Chevrolet Volt, but with a compact and power-dense Wankel rotary engine/generator to keep the battery alive after power from the grid is depleted. The diagrams released by Audi show that the Wankel is mounted in the car’s rear behind the T-shaped battery pack that sits mostly under the rear seat.
